    Weakness

    Performance of the company is heavily dependent on the performance of the cyclical automotive sector in India, Europe, North America, Latin America, and some part of Asia. Apart from auto-components, which is supplied to automotive OEMs/suppliers, the bearing assembly, where bearing rings is key component is also majorly has end usage in automotive sector.

    Capacity utilization for forging was low at 33.48%, 32.92%, and 50.01%, for FYs 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Inability of the company to get volume growth will continue to impact the profitability of the company.

    A few of its top 10 customers belong to the same corporate group and while the decision making for each of these customers is largely independent, any adverse action taken by any member of such group may impact the relations of the company with other members of such customer group as well.

    The company have defaulted in payment of certain loans in the past and had approached CDR Cell for restructuring debt in FY 2013. As per the restructuring agreement the facilities are secured by pledge on the shareholding of its promoters and members of promoter group including requirement of creation of pledge on any new securities issued to promoters and members of promoter group, encumbrance on the entire fixed and current assets of the company, personal guarantees issued by the promoters and members of the promoter group, and corporate guarantees issued by members of the promoter group, namely, Rolex Properties and Madeka Properties.

    Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreements (CDR), the Promoters and members of the Promoter Group of the company entered into a supplemental pledge agreement dated March 28, 2013, with Consortium Lenders, pursuant to which Promoters and members of Promoter Group have pledged 13,066,667 Equity Shares in favour of the Consortium Lenders. Further, through a pledge agreement dated September 24, 2018, between Promoters and certain members of the Promoter Group and the Consortium Lenders, 13,605,863 NCRPS held by Promoters and certain members of Promoter Group had pledged in favour of the Consortium Lenders. To facilitate this offer, pursuant to the waiver letters, the Consortium Lenders have removed pledge on certain number of Equity Shares to ensure compliance with minimum promoter contributions as per SEBI ICDR Regulations. Further, the Consortium Lender have released the physical certificates of the residual pledged Equity Shares (i.e., other than the Equity Shares earmarked towards minimum promoter contribution) and NCRPS to facilitate the process of dematerialization of the Equity Shares and NCRPS. Pursuant to dematerialisation of the Equity Shares and NCRPS and in compliance with CDR Package, the Promoters and members of the Promoter Group have created lock-in on the residual Equity Shares (i.e. other than the Equity Shares earmarked towards minimum promoter contribution) to comply with the requirement of Regulation 17 of SEBI ICDR Regulations and are in the process of creating pledge on the NCRPS and the Residual Equity Shares in terms of Regulation 21(b) of SEBI ICDR Regulations.

The exact number of Equity Shares to be pledged with the Consortium Lenders will be finalized post determination of the number of Equity Shares to be issued pursuant to the Fresh Offer.

    The requirements of CDR group lenders also adversely impact the flexibility available to the management in running the business. As on March 31, 2021, the restructured term debt due is Rs 33.574 crore, translating into 6.89% of total debt restructured.
